▎ 摘  要

The quantized photonic spin Hall effect (PSHE) in the strained graphene-substrate system is predicted under a sub-Tesla external magnetic field, which is two orders of magnitude smaller than required to produce the quantized effect in the conventional graphene-substrate system. It is found that in-plane and transverse spin-dependent splittings in the PSHE, exhibit different quantized behaviors and are closely related to the reflection coefficients. Unlike the quantized PSHE in the conventional graphene-substrate system formed by the splitting of real Landau levels, the quantized PSHE in the strained graphene-substrate system is attributed to the splitting of pseudo-Landau levels caused by the pseudo-magnetic field and the lifting of valley degeneracy of the n not equal 0 pseudo-Landau levels induced by the sub-Tesla external magnetic field. At the same time, the pseudo-Brewster angles of the system are also quantized with the change of Fermi energy. The sub-Tesla external magnetic field and the PSHE appear as quantized peak values near these angles. The giant quantized PSHE is expected to be used for direct optical measurements of the quantized conductivities and pseudo-Landau levels in the monolayer strained graphene.(c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
